Date Night

You can't really put a price on creativity.

It is revered by bosses, celebrated by art teachers everywhere, and as a rule - relished by every girlfriend.

Now, when it comes to date night, some guys will phone it in. They pick a chain restaurant or a swankier venue awash in white table cloths, and they call it a night.

Most women will sip on their chardonnay and slice in to their chicken breast wrapped in applewood smoked bacon with nary a complaint, but inside they're thinking, God. Does this guy even know how to try?

The Toy Lab in Mt. Washington is this amazing place that helps children create new toys by using pieces of old, broken versions that are recycled for parts. The venue is a non profit arts center, and its website claims its the only place of its kind in the entire world.
